LOVE, HONOR AND 
BEHAVE’ IS COMEDY 
COMING TO STRAND 


“Love, Honor and Behave,” an 
engaging comedy about young mar- 
ried life, and co-starring two 
sensational young actors, Wayne 
Morris and Priscilla Lane, has 
been scheduled as the next feature 
attraction at the Strand Theatre, 
where it will open on Friday. 


You’ll remember Morris as the 
“Kid” of that recent success, “Kid 
Galahad,” in which he sky-rocketed 
to stardom. Six-foot-four of blonde 
and grinning manhood, he’s the 
answer to any maiden’s prayer and 
a swell actor besides. As for Pris- 
cilla Lane, she’s the small armful 
of crooning dynamite who vamped 
her way to fame in “Varsity 
Show.” The team is said to be one 
of the most romantic and delight- 
ful pairs the screen has ever had. 


“Bei Mir Bist Du Schon,” the 
novelty swing tune which has 
taken the country by storm, is 
featured in the picture. And you 
haven’t heard it until you hear 
Priscilla croon it to Wayne. 


The story, based on Stephen 
Vincent Benet’s Saturday Evening 
Post story, “Everybody Was Very 
Nice,” deals with a pair of child- 
hood sweethearts who grow up in 
an atmosphere of divorce. They 
marry and that’s when the trou- 
ble starts, but they overcome their 
difficulties in a novel fashion. One 
of the highlights in the picture is 
said to be a fistic battle between 
Wayne and Priscilla, out of which 
both emerge with black eyes and a 
brand new respect for each other. 


In the supporting cast are Dick 
Foran, John Litel, Thomas Mit- 
chell, Barbara O’Neil, Mona Bar- 
rie and Dickie Moore. Stanley Lo- 
gan directed, working from a screen 
adaptation by Clements Ripley, 
Robert Buckner, Michel Jacoby 
and Lawrence Kimble. 


PRISCILLA CROONS ‘BEI 
MIR BIST DU SCHON’ 


First to introduce on the screen 
the new song sensation, “Bei Mir 
Bist Du Schén” (“Means That 
You’re Grand”) is Priscilla Lane. 

It is the one and only number 
the songbird of radio and screen 
fame sings in her new Warner 
Bros. romantic film, “Love, Honor 
and Behave,” which opens next 
Friday at the Strand Theatre. 

Written by Sholom Secunda, 
“Bei Mir Bist Du Schon” bears 
the unusual distinction of having 
sold more than 100,000 copies the 
first week it was placed on sale. 
This is an unusually high mark 
on sheet music sales in the present 
market. 

Secunda wrote the music, Jacob 
Jacobs wrote the original lyrics 
and the English version is by 
Cahn-Chaplin. 

The song was found to be ideally 
suited to “Love, Honor and Be- 
have,” in which Miss Lane and 
Wayne Morris are featured and 
was purchased by Warner Bros. 

“Love, Honor and Behave” is a 
delightful comedy of young mar- 
ried life. Besides Miss Lane and 
Morris, the cast includes Dick 
Foran, John Litel, Barbara O’Neil, 
and Dickie Moore. It was adapted 
from a Stephen Vincent Benet 
story by Clements Ripley, Robert 
Buckner, Michel Jacoby and Law- 
rence Kimble. 


VETERAN AT TWELVE 
Dickie Moore, now 12, has been 
a movie actor since he was 11 
months old and has more success- 
ful pictures and a more brilliant 
career to his credit than many an 
actor years his senior.

ROUGH ROMEO AND BATTLING BRIDE

Mat 206—30¢ 


This is an in-between-rounds photo of Wayne Morris avnih Priscilla 
Lane who appear in their first co-starring comedy hit, “Love, 
Honor And Behave” produced by Warner Bros. It’s a treat ’em 
rough, kiss and make up kind of a romance which comes neatly 
packed for laughs, next Friday at the Strand Theatre. 


Priscilla Lane—‘K1 d , M Orris 


Screen’s Newest Love Team 


It started back in the days when 
Beverly was the Bayne of Francis 
X. Bushman’s existence. 

Movie fans showed then they 
wanted team-work in pictures and 
team-work they’ve had ever since. 

Tastes in movie heroes and hero- 
ines may change but the basic al- 
lure back of romantic combinations 
never varies. 

It’s something that movie pro- 
ducers can’t guess—something the 
public itself decrees. They select 
a handsome man and a beautiful

girl who seem ideally suited to 
each other in a romantic way. If 
there is a hint that their sereen 
romance is carried into their pri- 
vate lives, so much the better. 
That’s one reason why Holly- 
wood’s newest romantic team — 
Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane—- 
who were cast together in “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” the Warner 
Bros. comedy-drama that opens 
next Friday at the Strand Theatre, 
by popular demand seem destined to 
become the newest sensations in 
romantic screen couples. On the 
screen they make love and marry— 
off the screen they are holding 
hands seriously and intently. 
Bushman and Bayne started the 
romantic team scheme and roman- 
tic teams have made screen history 
ever since. Another generation of 
fans will never forget the Norma 
Talmadge-Gene O’Brien combina- 
tion; the light romantic comedies 
made by Douglas MacLean and 
Doris May and those featuring 
Jack Mulhall and Dorothy Mackaill 
or the Richard Barthelmess and 
Dorothy Gish film romances. 
Other milestones in cinema his- 
tory were set by the late John 
Gilbert and Greta Garbo; by Ron- 
ald Colman and Vilma Banky. And 


it was the fans of today who de- 
manded that Janet Gaynor and 
Charles Farrell be teamed after the 
silent version of “Seventh Heav- 
en.” For many years those same 
fans forced this combination to be 
continued with their interest lag- 
ging only in recent years. 

The name of Powell seems to 
hold a fascination for present day 
fans in their quest for romantic 
combinations. There’s the Joan 
Blondell-Dick Powell duo; the 
Carole Lombard-William Po --"

Jeannette MacDonald-Nelson Eddy 
team which holds in popularity de- 
spite her marriage to Gene Ray- 
mond and the Fred Astaire and 
Ginger Rogers combination. 

If the fans have their way an- 
other romantic screen team will be 
that of Robert Taylor and Barbara 
Stanwyck. And fans have a way of 
getting what they want. 

Producers have tried experiment- 
ing in romantic teams. They have 
tried teaming extremely capable 
players but if the combination lacks 
that mysterious something the fan 
demands, it is doomed to failure. 

The Wayne Morris-Priscilla Lane 
combination invited such an imme- 
diate spark that other stories are 
being prepared without waiting to 
see how “Love, Honor and Be- 
have” goes. In fact “Men Are Such 
Fools” is already in production. 

“Love, Honor and Behave” was 
written by Stephen Vincent Benet 
and directed by Stanley Logan 
from the screenplay by Clements 
Ripley, Robert Buckner, Michel Ja- 
coby and Lawrence Kimble. Those 
in the cast are Dick Foran, John 
Litel, Barbara O’Neil, Mona Bar- 
rie, and Dickie Moore, 


CINEMA’S LATEST 
LOVE MATCH JUST 
WON'T TELL ALL! 


A big Hollywood motion picture 
studio is a little like a big family 
in more ways than one. A happy, 
noisy, quarrelsome but loyal 
family. 

The players under contract to 
Warner Bros. are like that. They 
have a certain community of in- 
terest and even though they may 
not all be always happy, they 
have a kind of family curiosity 
about everything that another con- 
tract player does, says or is re- 
ported to have done or said. 

So a recent printed report that 
Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane 
are or will be married excited them 
all, the other young players par- 
ticularly. 

The good-looking Wayne and 
Priscilla play the leading parts in 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” the 
comedy-drama that is due to open 
next Friday at the Strand The- 
atre. 

A few at the studio professed to 
believe the matrimonial _ story. 
Others were “absolutely sure” that 
the rumor was false. They con- 
gregated on the sets and about the 
dressing rooms before and after 
working hours, exchanging opin- 
ions and what facts they had—if 
any. 

The concensus of opinion seems 
to have been that the report, at 
best, was exaggerated. Both prin- 
cipals played the game, however, 
and refused to commit themselves. 

“Wouldn’t you like to know?” 
grinned Morris. 

“You can’t believe all you hear,” 
declared Priscilla. 

And that’s all the “family” 
knows—except what it reads in 
the papers. 

Priscilla and Wayne, like the 
daisies in the field, just won’t tell. 


WAYNE ‘KID’ MORRIS 
IS OBLIGING SWAIN 


Wayne (Kid Galahad) Morris 
of the movies, is an obliging swain. 

He and Priscilla (Pat) Lane, 
with whom he was filming “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” the Warner 
Bros. comedy-drama due to open 
next Friday at the Strand The- 
tre, decided to go out together one 
Saturday night. 

“Should we dress?’’ asked 
Wayne. 

“Let’s not,” said Priscilla. “As 
long as we’re just going to a movie 
I think T’ll wear slacks.” 

When Wayne called for her she 
was attired in a chic street suit, 
the slacks apparently forgotten. 
He took one reproachful look at 
her and then glanced down at the 
rubber tennis shoes he was wear- 
ing with his tweed suit. 

Nothing was said about the sub- 
ject of clothes. When they 
reached Hollywood, Wayne parked 
the car on the boulevard, excused 
himself and disappeared.  Pres- 
ently he returned, wearing a new 
pair of tan shoes which he had 
just purchased. 

“Are these any better, Pat?” he 
asked. 

“They’re lovely,” said Pat, “but 
your sox don’t go well with 
them—” 

“Excuse me,’ said Wayne pa- 
tiently, disappearing again. He 
returned wearing new sox. 

And then they went to a movie 
—the midnight show! 


SHE COLLECTS FAUNA 
Mona Barrie, who has an at- 
tractive role in “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” at the Strand Theatre, 
has one of the largest and most 
complete collections of tropical 

fish and birds in the country.

Bobbed hair that doesn’t look

A woman daringly smoking a 
cigaret. 


Bathtub gin and young girls

Young people who more or less 
willingly obey their parents— 
and others who insist upon their 
right to rule their own lives and 
make their own mistakes. 


These are not the musings of an 
oldster but the problems confront- 
ing the very young and very alert 
technical men and others con- 
cerned with the filming of “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” Warner Bros. 
romantic tale of youth featuring 
Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane. 
This comedy-drama comes to the 
Strand Theatre next Friday. 


Eighteen years is not a long 
space of time in these swift, mod- 
ern days, but it represents many 
changes in the American scene, ac- 
cording to Director Stanley Logan. 
Changes of which the average per- 
son is not aware but which must 
be recognized in a story that cov- 
ers that length of time if the 
picture is to have the ring of 
authenticity. 


The story of “Love, Honor and 
Behave” opens in the turbulent 
period right after the World 
War. Wayne and Priscilla are 
in their childhood and their re- 
spective parents, Barbara O’Neil 
and Thomas Mitchell, and Mona 
Barrie and John Litel are em- 
broiled in the exciting times of the 
interesting post war days. 


The days when women were first 
submitting to the barbers’ shears 
and weeping afterwards, before 
they had the courage to go in for 
shingles and boyish haircuts. The 
days when persons who never 
drank before were making their 
own home brew. In other words, 
the age of that all-American in- 
vention, the flapper. 


IMPORTS CHOW MEIN 


Barbara O’Neil, treating the 
cast and crew of “Love, Honor 
and Behave” at Warner Bros. 
studio, to a chow mein feast, re- 
vealed that every Saturday she 
receives a shipment of the Oriental 
dish of American origin by plane 
from Minneapolis.

Here we see the aftermath of the swellest knock-down, kiss--and-

Honor And Behave,” Warner Bros. comedy, which will be featured 
on the Strand screen starting next Friday. 


Love, Honor And Behave’ 
Is Love Battle of the Year 


Things are getting tougher and 
tougher for the movie pretties 
every day. The weaker sex is no 
more. 

Time was when a movie candi- 
date merely had to be lovely to 
look at and possess a_ certain 
amount of potential histrionic tal- 
ent. 

Now she must be able to lick 
twice her weight in wildcats—and 
at the same time look pretty and 
sweet and feminine. 


The worst thing pretty Pris- 
cilla Lane has had to “live 
down” in Hollywood, she de- 
clares are the candid camera 
shots Fred Waring, her former 
boss, snapped of her taking a 
shower bath. The pictures were 
perfectly innocent and _ ap- 
peared in “Life,” but Priscilla 
says she has taken so much 
kidding she is afraid to bathe 
without posting guards and 
double-locking all the doors. 
Just the sight of a ‘candid 
camera’ makes her feel as 
though she were’ walking 
around in the_ altogether. 
That’s why Priscilla, who isn’t 
the least bit upstage, simply 
refuses to pose for the camera 
when she’s away from the 
studio. At present, she is 
leading lady in “Love, Honor 
and Behave.” 


Take the case of Wayne Morris 
and Priscilla Lane, new love team 
starring in Warner Bros. “Love, 
Honor and Behave.” 

Wayne’s fighting weight is 190 
pounds and he is 6 feet 2. Pris- 
cilla, soaking wet, weighs 100 
pounds and is 5 feet 2. 


The two go to battle in the in- 
terests of love that makes ring— 
pardon—screen history. 


Just by way of a curtain raiser 
and, perhaps, a bit of training, 
Wayne throws Dick Foran out of 
the house. Then he tells Priscilla 
to sit down and when she refuses, 
picks her up bodily and slams her 
down on a sofa. She leaps to her 


feet, slaps his face and he ad- 
vances on her with an infuriating 
smile. 


“Okay, baby, you asked for it,” 
he says in the vernacular. 


Whereupon he slaps her, giving 
her a black eye. She retaliates 
with a well-thrown book and he 
becomes decorated with the pro- 
verbial “shiner” and the fight is on. 
Furniture is broken, lamps are 
smashed as they go round and 
round through living room, kitchen 
and other rooms of their charming 
little home. You see, they are mar- 
-ried, which makes everything per- 
fectly all right. 


Socking women in pictures is not 
new. James Cagney started it when 
he pushed a grapefruit into Mae 
Clarke’s face in “Public Enemy.” 
At one time Jimmy and Clark 
Gable were leading contenders for 
the title of “No. 1 Woman Socker” 
of the screen. Edward G. Robinson 
helped things along when he booted 
Margaret Livingston, where people 
usually are booted, in ‘Smart 
Money.” 


Fredric March knocks out Carole 
Lombard and she returns the com- 
pliment in “Nothing Sacred” and 
now Wayne and Priscilla are rais- 
ing the new screen sport to an even 
higher plane of realism. 


To the men who have long suf- 
fered in silence because’ they 
thought it wasn’t nice to slap a 
woman, it is all very confusing. 


But those men are among the 
fans who are demanding this new 
and more glorified trend in enter- 
tainment. And don’t think the fem- 
inine members of the audience don’t 
enjoy it. They love it because it 
shows a woman can dish it as well 
as take it—even if it shatters the 
legend of the weaker sex. 


A word of caution to the mar- 
ried men present, however. Don’t 
let the movies sell you an idea. 

Maybe the little woman needs a 
sock on the chin—but you better 
buy her silk hose instead. She may 
be able to dish it more than you 
can take it. 


LANE AND HER WAYNE 
STAGE A LOVE BOUT 
IN COMEDY ROMANCE 


This is the day of new thought 
in the rearing of children. 


There are some who advocate 
the giving of a clock and a ham- 
mer to a youngster, so he can find 
out for himself what their rela- 
tivity is. ‘And when it’s all over 
they don’t sympathize with smashed 
fingers or attempt to make the 
clock tick again. 

The dominating type prefers to 
make laboratory specimens of thei: 
off-spring, dictating their life, ca- 
reer, habits and very thoughts. 

It is a product of this latter 
school that Priscilla Lane finds 
Wayne Morris in the amusing 
comedy romance, “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” in which they are cur- 
rently featured by Warner Bros., 
and which will open next Friday 
at the Strand Theatre. 


The girl finds her childhood 
playmate is a splendid example of 
scientific rearing by his mother, 
Barbara O’Neil, of “Stella Dallas” 
fame, and Priscilla, with energy 
and hilarious consequences, pro- 
ceeds to matriculate him in her 
own school of thought. 


They swap black eyes before 
the matter is satisfactorily ad- 
justed in the swift-moving, fasci- 
nating story by Stephen Vincent 
Benet, which is dedicated to all 
persons of all ages on either side 
of the question who would like to 
have their own way. 


John Litel, who scored such a 
hit in “Aleatraz Island,” Mona 
Barrie, Dick Foran, Dickie Moore 
and Thomas Mitchell are others in 
the cast of this ultra-modern pic- 
ture. Stanley Logan directed. 


HAS HOME THEATRE 


Wayne Morris, of the movies, 
has a completely equipped theatre 
with a seating capacity of 10 per- 
sons in his home. There he con- 
tinues his study of set designing, 
lighting and other theatrical arts 
started at the Pasadena Com- 
munity Playhouse before he en- 
tered pictures. 


There also he rehearses his lines 
for his pictures, his latest use of 
the theatre being for his new 
Warner Bros film “Love, Honor 
and Behave,” which opens next 
Friday at the Strand Theatre. In 
rehearsing a scene he set the 
stage with dummies for actors.

PRISCILLA'S HOBBY 15 
RAISING PUSSY CATS 


Priscilla Lane of the movies has 
realized a great ambition. 

A realization made _ possible 
when she, her sister Rosemary 
and their mother moved to a 
small ranch at Encino, California. 

Priscilla is raising cats. Cats 
of every variety and description, 
with a pair of rare Siamese kit- 
tens given to her recently by Ian 
Hunter as the present royal rulers 
of the ranch. 

All her life she has been crazy 
about cats—especially kittens. She 
says they have merely scratched 
the surface (oops, pardon) of her 
ambition but she has made a 
pretty good start. 

She has Persian, Angora and 
plain, ordinary Maltese cats in ad- 
dition to the Siamese kittens and 
says she won’t be satisfied until 
she has every known breed of cat, 
barring lions and tigers. 

Wayne Morris gave her a pair 
of Manx cats when they finished 
their new Warner Bros. picture, 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” the 
comedy-drama that opens next Fri- 
day at the Strand Theatre. 


JOHN LITEL DOSES 
AILING FILM STARS 


Husky, hoarse voices, the bane 
of an actor’s existence, are a 
rarity during the making of pic- 
tures in which John Litel appears. 
Because of this, his fellow actors 
have nicknamed him “Doc’’ Litel. 


Litel’s remedy for the hoarse 
voices is a coughdrop made from 
an old English formula which in- 
cludes linseed oil and menthol 
among its ingredients. The cough- 
drop is manufactured by the father 
of Litel’s wife. 

During the filming of “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” the engross- 
ing Warner Bros. comedy-drama 
featuring Wayne Morris and Pris- 
cilla Lane, which comes to the 
Strand Theatre next Friday, Litel 
kept a case of the lozenges on the 
set at all times. 

Whenever a player complained 
of a throaty voice, Litel immedi- 
ately presented him with a box of 
the coughdrops. As a result of 
his activity and generosity, fame 
of the coughdrops, which are said 
to be very soothing, is spreading 
throughout Hollywood. 

So popular have the lozenges be- 
come that Litel is considering 
opening an office in Hollywood to 
market them as a sideline venture. 


NO GLAMOR GIRL STUFF 


Priscilla Lane, now of the 
movies, forgot she had another 
show to do while playing Charlotte, 
N. C., with Fred Waring and His 


Pennsylvanians and_ started to 


wash her hair in her dressing 
room. Fred dragged her on the 
stage and explained her bedrag- 
gled, wet locks to the howling de- 
light of the audience and her own 
embarrassment. 

Miss Lane now has the leading 
feminine part in “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” which comes to the 
Strand Theatre next Friday. It 
is a Warner Bros. comedy-drama 
directed by Stanley Logan and 
with Wayne Morris as the hero. 


ALWAYS HAS A FLOWER 
Stanley Logan, who directed 


“Love, Honor and Behave” for . 


Warner Bros., is just English 
enough to appear every day with 
a white carnation in his button- 
hole. The flower never gets a 
chance to wither because the script 
girl has a standing order to see 
that it is replaced every few hours.

Mat 201-—30c 


When two boys, Wayne Morris and Dick Foran, meet girl, Priscilla 
Lane, they become this way about each other: Love, Honor and 
Behave, which is another way of introducing the name and stars 
of Warner Bros. comedy hit which is the Strand’s next attraction. 


Fans Demand Lane-Morris 


Love Team—And T hey Get It! 


Screen history repeats itself and 
another film cycle is born. 


Which is another way of saying 
that the public demands and gets 
what it wants. 

The day of the romantic screen 
team has returned. Take one 
handsome hero and a_ beautiful 
girl, ideally suited to each other, 


Mat 106—15c 


WAYNE LOVES LANE 
Hollywood's Latest Love Match! 


and you have the team. Put them 
through all sorts of difficulties with 
boy winning girl in the final reel 
and you have what the public 
wants. 

Boy and girl even may marry 
early in the picture. That would 
have been out of the question a 
few years ago but now exempli- 
fies the modern note to the cycle. 

Years ago the screen had the 
romantic team of Jack Mulhall and 
Dorothy Mackail and Douglas 
MacLean and Doris May, to men- 
tion but two of the outstanding 
ones. 

Today it has, among others, 
Errol Flynn and Olivia deHavil- 
land, Tyrone Power and Loretta 
Young, and Dick Powell and Joan 
Blondell. The studio wanted to 
team Power and Sonja Heinie but 


popular demand took him off the 
ice to team up with Loretta. 

Newest of the combinations is 
Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane. 
Wayne leaped to the top of public 
favor in a single picture—“‘Kid 
Galahad.” The far-sighted War- 
ner Bros. immediately saw his 
possibilities and sought an intrigu- 
ing young lovely to team with him. 

Solution of their problem was 
taken out of their hands. Gay, 
lovely young Priscilla Lane came 
along with Fred Waring and his 
Pennsylvanians to film “Varsity 
Show.” When the picture was re- 
leased, Priscilla was such a hit 
that the studio signed her to a 
long term contract. 

Then the fan letters started 
pouring in. They all struck the 
same note, in that mysterious, un- 
canny affinity fan mail often has 
for one subject. 

Wayne Morris had found his 
girl friend. And if the studio 
didn’t team him with Priscilla 
Lane, the letters would keep up 
the barrage until the studio did. 

The result is “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” the comedy-drama _ in 
which the youngsters are co- 
starred and which opens next Fri- 
day at the Strand Theatre. 

Husky Wayne and diminutive 
Priscilla show every indication of 
being the answer to the fans’ 
prayer. 

So impressive has been their 
work during the short time the 
picture has been showing that the 
studio already is making bigger 
and better plans for them. 

Following this picture, Wayne 
and Priscilla will be teamed in 
“Men Are Such Fools,” the next 
in a long series of teaming films. 


SIMPLIFIES HIS NAME 


The real full name of Wayne 
Morris is Bert DeWayne Morris 
which was too high falutin for the 
movies. Wayne is at present play- 
ing the lead in “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” the Warner Bros. com- 
edy-drama coming to the Strand. 


‘SAILOR’ DICK FORAN 
READY TO EMBARK 


Building boats in the hot San 
Fernando Valley of California, 15 
and more miles from the ocean, is 
no novelty. Shipwrights, amateur 
and professional, ply their trade 
all over the valley without any- 
body giving it a second thought. 
The boats are transported to salt 
water by trucks. 

But when a movie star is en- 
gaged in such a work, that’s some- 
thing else. 

For many months, Dick Foran, 
Warner Bros. star, has been 


_ building a sloop. If he can obtain 


an extended leave of absence from 
the studio, he will sail from San 
Pedro for New York in early 
Summer. With Foran will be five 
of his friends, and the trip will be 
made around Cape Horn. 

Foran, in revealing his plans on 
the ‘‘Love, Honor and Behave” set 
at Warner Bros. studio, said he 
estimates the trip will take from 
three to six months. 


WAYNE MORRIS MADE 
A FRIENDLY INDIAN’ 


Several months ago Wayne (Kid 
Galahad) Morris was made a 
“Friendly Indian.” 

He was initiated by a large 
group of Los Angeles Y.M.C.A. 
boys who belong to the organiza- 
tion. They let him off without pad- 
dling or other unpleasant initia- 
tion ceremonies and Wayne has 
been proud of his affiliation ever 
since. 

Now he is looking around for a 
way to repay the boys—who are 
youngsters from nine to twelve 
years of age. 

“Sing for them,” suggested Wil- 
lard Parker, actor friend of 
Wayne’s. 

“I won’t do it,” said Wayne, 
“but just the same I’ll bet they 
would like it.” Wayne is a little 
sensitive about his voice and the 
fact that he has never been allowed 
to sing in a picture. 

“Some night,” he added, “you’ll 
see the whole bunch of us—all 
Friendly Indians —out together, 
having a whale of a time. That’ll 
be my Indians and me!” 

Wayne is currently co-starring 
with Priscilla Lane in “Love 
Honor and Behave,” the Warner 
Bros. comedy-drama. 


PRISCILLA NOW A STAR 


When Priscilla Lane, signed 
again by Warner Bros. following 
her exceptional work in “Varsity 
Show,” started her leading role in 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” she 
found a huge Neon star affixed t# 
her dressing room door. 


“BUY A BEER, 
MR. SHANE” 


Ever since “Bei Mir Bist 
Du Schon,” the theme song of 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” 
was first played over the air, 
the publishers have been re- 
ceiving requests for copies 
and more copies. But some 
of the writers-in just couldn’t 
catch the name _ properly. 
Here are just a few of the 
garbled titles: “Buy a Beer, 
Mr. Schane”; “Mr. Barney 
McShane”; “Buy Me _ the 
Same”; and one more imagi- 
native music dealer wrote in 
for twenty-five copies of “My 
Mere Bits of Shame.” An- 
other wrote in simply for that 
new French song. The latest 
variation on it (with apolo- 
gies to another popular song 
of the day) is “Have You 
Met Miss DuShane?” 


OFF SCREEN LOVE 
TEAM STAR IN ‘LOVE, 
HONOR AND BEHAVE’ 


Bringing before the movie fans 
a new and _ youthful romantic 
team, a Warner Bros. comedy- 
drama called “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” had its first local show- 
ing yesterday, at the Strand The- 
atre. 

The youngsters are Wayne Mor- 
ris, the blond giant who scored so 
sensationally in his first picture, 
“Kid Galahad,” and petite Priscilla 
Lane, who had about the same sort 
of success in her first film, “Var- 
sity Show.” 


It is the intention of the War- 
ners to keep Wayne and Priscilla 
together in a number of comedy 
productions. 


“Love, Honor and Behave” is a 
story about a boy who has been 
brought up by his mother to be a 
graceful loser rather than a win- 
ner in the affairs of life. The 
mother is Barbara O’Neil, who 
had such a triumph recently in 
“Stella Dallas.” 

Wayne Morris and Priscilla 
Lane are shown first as childhood 
sweethearts. They grow up and 
eventually marry but not until 
then does the girl realize what a 
weakling the boy is. She cures 
him of his yellowness by fighting 
with him and after the current 
fashion of the movies, they sock 
each other with bare fists. Wayne 
and Priscilla come out of this en- 
counter with a nice black eye 
apiece. 

The photoplay was made from 
a national magazine story by 
Stephen Vincent Benet called 
“Everybody Was Very Nice.” It 
was adapted for screen purposes 
by Clements Ripley, Robert Buck- 
ner, Michel Jacoby and Lawrence 
Kimble. Stanley Logan was the 
director. The supporting cast in- 
cludes such noted players as John 
Litel, Dick Foran, Thomas Mit- 
chell, Mona Barrie, Minor Wat- 
son, Donald Briggs and the child 
star, Dickie Moore. 


‘“FAUNTLEROY’ FORAN 


Strained relations between Dick 
Foran and Warner Bros. studio 


resulted when he was told he’d ~ 


have to wear a brown corduroy 
Fauntleroy suit in “Love, Honor 
and Behave,” the comedy now on 
the screen at the Strand Theatre. 
He was afraid his pals would hear 
about it. But he’s playing the role 
and wearing the suit. That’s Hol- 
lywood — doing what you _ don’t 
want to do! 


NO SISSY STUFF FOR HIM 


When little Dickie Moore, who 
portrays Wayne Morris at the age 
of eight in Warner Bros.’ “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” had to bleach 
his hair to match the star’s, he 
demanded that he be supplied with 
a dark wig to wear home so the 
neighborhood kids wouldn’t “rib” 
him about the bleaching. He got it!

Warner Bros. studio which opens today at the Strand Theatre. 


(Review) 


“Love. Honor And Bebave” 
Tops In Comedy Romance 


Story Synopsis: (Not for publication ) 

Sally Painter (Barbara O’Neil) has made a 
fetish of being a good loser. She would rather 
lose gracefully than win. Much to the disgust of 
Dan Painter (Thomas Mitchell) her husband, 
she is raising their son Ted (Dickie Moore, as 
a child, Wayne Morris, grown up) according to 


this creed. 


She divorces Dan when she apprehends him in 
the act of innocently kissing Lisa Blake (Mona 
Barrie). Lisa is the wife of Jim Blake (John 
Litel). Their daughter Barbara (Audrey Leonard, 
as the child, Priscilla Lane, grown up) is the play- 


mate of the young Ted. 


Years later Barbara meets Ted again, falls in 
love with him despite her engagement to Pete 
Martin (Dick Foran) and determines to take Ted 
away from his mother’s influence. 

Ted finally is awakened. He whips Pete and 
throws him out and then starts on Barbara. Then 


the fun begins! 


x 


Every once in a while some- 


thing comes along that revives 


a jaded oldster’s faith in youth 
and love. Such a heart-warm- 
ing piece is “Love, Honor and 
Behave” which opened yester- 
day at the Strand Theatre. 

Two of the most engaging 
youngsters ever to step before 
a camera, a true-to-life love 
story, rollicking with human 
comedy, fine understanding di- 
rection, and a love song which 
has already taken the country 
by storm are the component 
parts of “Love, Honor and Be- 
Have.” But, seeing the pic- 
ture, you won’t bother to break 
it up into its parts—you’ll just 
laugh, shed a tear or two, live 
the story through and be aw- 
fully glad you came. 

Wayne Morris and Priscilla 
Lane are the youngsters. There’s 
something about this Morris 
fellow. Something clean and 
fine, something infectious that 
has lifted him clear out of the 
rank and file of young leading 
men and into the star class. In 
“Kid Galahad” and “Submarine 
D-1” he proved to his producers 
and the public that he was 
something more than a hand- 
some young stripling with a de- 
lightful grin who could pack a 


le 


ale 
~ 


wallop. In “Love, Honor and 
Behave” he proves that he’s an 
actor of first rank capable of 
holding an audience captive in 
that sizable palm of his. As 
for his love-life, Miss Priscilla 
Lane, whom you will remember 
as the outrageous little vamp 
with the golden voice in “Var- 
sity Show,” say that she’s a 
mixture of honey and red pep- 
per and you'll get as close as 
possible to describing the inde- 
scribable. She’s blond, she’s 
twenty, she sings “Bei Mir Bist 
Du Schon,” that haunting bit 
of swing, in a way that you’ll 
remember and remember. 

The story, which was adapted 
from Stephen Vincent Benet’s 
“Everybody Was Very Nice,” is 
about two kids who are child- 
hood sweethearts. They grow 
up and marry—and that’s the 
point where the picture really 
begins. But we won’t spoil it 
for you. Suffice to say that the 
picture might have been sub- 
titled “How Not to Get a Di- 
vorce in Spite of Your In- 
Laws.” bes 

You’ll come away hold your 
sides, humming “Bei Mir Bist 
Du Schon” and thoroughly con- 
vinced that the world’s a pretty 
grand place, after all. ‘Se 


LOVE, HONOR AND 
BEHAVE’ OPENING 
AT STRAND TODAY 


A new and attractive team of 
youngsters makes its appearance 
today at the Strand Theatre, in 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” the 
newest Warner Bros. comedy- 
drama. 


The boy is the tall, young pugi- 
list of “Kid Galahad’ — Wayne 
Morris. The girl is small and 
dainty Priscilla Lane whom War- 
ner Bros. enticed away from Fred 
Waring’s Pennsylvanians after her 
performance in the recent musical 
hit “Varsity Show.” “Love, Honor 
and Behave” is the story of a boy 
brought up by a doting mother 
to become her impression of a gen- 
tleman. 


This was not the idea of the 
girl who had always loved him. 
She cured him of the fault in an 
unusual way—by sailing into him 
literally with a fistic barrage. The 
big scene of the picture is a battle 
between Wayne and Priscilla at 
the end of which each has a nice 
black eye but a more complete 
understanding of the other. 


The photoplay was directed by 
Stanley Logan from a national 
magazine story by the famous 
Stephen Vincent Benet called 
“Everybody Was Very Nice.” This 
was adapted to the screen by 
Clements Ripley, Robert Buckner, 
Michel Jacoby and Lawrence Kim- 
ble. Others in the cast include 
Dick Foran, Thomas Mitchell, John 
Litel, Barbara O’Neil, Dickie 
Moore and Mona Barrie. 


SHE WHO GETS SPANKED 


They were shooting the last 
scene from “Love, Honor and Be- 
have” and the parents of the 
youthful Wayne Morris and Pris- 
cilla Lane had rushed into the 
house to find Wayne with Priscilla 
over his knee, busily administer- 
ing a good spanking. 

Everything that could possibly 
go wrong with a scene had gone 
wrong. It was retaken and re- 
taken and the hour grew later. 

“Come on people,” said Director 
Stanley Logan, “one more take 
and we'll all go home.” 

“Don’t worry about us,” said 
Wayne, “one more take and I 
won’t have a home to go to.” 

“Love, Honor and Behave,” a 
highly amusing Warner’ Bros. 
comedy-drama will be seen next 
Friday at the Strand Theatre. 


HELPFUL FRIENDS 


Priscilla Lane is almost never 
recognized off-screen by fans. Re- 
cently she accompanied Wayne 
Morris to a radio station when he 
appeared on a national broadcast 
and the next day she received 23 
letters from fans informing her 
that Wayne was two-timing her 
and had a strange girl with him 
at the broadcast. This off-screen 
and on-screen romantic team are 
now co-starring in “Love, Honor 
and Behave,” the delightful new 
comedy which is showing at the 
Strand Theatre.

WAYNE MORRIS’ KID 
BROTHER BASKS IN 
REFLECTED GLORY 


Probably the most popular boy 
at a certain Los Angeles junior 
high school these days is 15-year- 
old Dick Morris. 

Lovely little school girls smile 
at him longingly and make no se- 
cret of the fact that they are will- 
ing, even eager, to have him escort 
them to various schooi functions 
—and to the movies. 

But the girls aren’t fooling Dick. 
He knows that it is not entirely 
his manly charm that makes him 
so popular. He knows that he is 
second best in their affections— 
they have a crush on his brother, 
Wayne (Kid Galahad) Morris, 
who is now starring in “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” the Warner 
Bros. comedy-drama now showing 
at the Strand Theatre. 

The big moment in Dick’s life is 
little Rosemary Cooper, whose 
beauty quite possibly may lead her 
to a screen career some day. They 
are constantly together. 

But Rosemary has her troubles, 
too, according to her mother, who 
recently heard her laying down the 
law to Dick. 

“Yes, I’ll go to the movies with 
you tonight—but on one _ condi- 
tion,’ Rosemary told Dick. “I sim- 
ply won’t go to see ‘Submarine 
D-1’ again, whether your brother 
is in it or not. We’ve seen it the 
last seven times we’ve been to the 
movies and that’s enough.” 


THEY SWAP SOCKS 


The day of socking women in 
the movies has not passed, as 
some current pictures prove. But 
the women are coming into their 
own—they dish it as well as take 
it. Priscilla Lane gets a beautiful 
black eye from Wayne Morris in 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” the 
Warner Bros. comedy-drama now 
at the Strand Theatre. But he 
gets just as pretty an orb from 
her. And by the way, what sort 
of a title is that for such doings? 


SHE’S A SCREEN MAMA 


Barbara O’Neil, young picture 
actress, has had the novel experi- 
ence of being greeted as “mother” 
by several children in Hollywood, 
although she has never been mar- 
ried. 

In “Stella Dallas” she was the 
mother of Dickie Jones and in 
Warner Bros.’ “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” now showing at the 
Strand Theatre, she is the mother 
of Dickie Moore. She has had, she 
says, all the trials and tribulations 
of motherhood without actually 
being one. 


WAYNE’S NET SKILL 


Wayne Morris, working out 
daily on the tennis courts at War- 
ner Bros. studio for his role in 
“Love, Honor and Behave,” the 
comedy-drama now on the screen 
at the Strand Theatre, showed 
such form and skill that various 
tennis top-rankers are endeavoring 
to make him take up the game pro- 
fessionally as a sideline to his 
screen career. But if the film pub- 
lic have anything to say about 
it, Wayne will keep on making pic- 
tures. In “Love, Honor and Be- 
have” he’s co-starred with his best 
girl, Priscilla Lane. 


KEEPS MOVIE DIARY 


Priscilla Lane, pretty crooning 
actress who is co-starred with 
Wayne Morris in the _ current 
Strand comedy, “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” is keeping a diary of her 
career in pictures which she says 
she’ll put in a safe place for her 
grandchildren to read. So far she 
has appeared only in “Varsity 
Show” and “Love, Honor and Be- 
have,” but she’ll be coming soon 
again in “Men Are Such Fools.”

BEI MIR BIST DU SCHON 


Mat 202—30c 


Means that you’re grand, Priscilla Lane, for the way you sing “Bei 
Mir Bist Du Schon” to that sweetheart of the screen (boy friend 
to you!) Wayne Morris, in that kiss-and-make-up movie romance, 
“Love, Honor and Behave” now showing at the Strand Theatre. 


Theyre Just Home Girls— 
Those Talented Lane Sisters 


Leasing of a house in the foot- 
hills at Encino, California, by Pris- 
cilla and Rosemary Lane, young 
movie sisters, recently, points up 
the fact that the women stars of 
today demand home life along with 
careers. 

Hardly dry was the ink on their 
contracts with Warner Bros. be- 
fore the singing sisters set wheels 
in motion to obtain a home. 


Romance’ between Wayne 
Morris and Priscilla Lane re- 
ceived a temporary setback 
during the filming of “Love, 
Honor and Behave” at War- 
ner Bros. studio when _ she 
telephoned him, said “Guess 
who” — which aggravates his 
pet peeve—and he hung up 
on her. It cost him a large 
bouquet of orchids, a_ five 
pound box of candy and a 
pair of theatre tickets to 
square things because he didn’t 
recognize her voice. 


They had specific ideas and an 
agent was employed to fill them. 
A home in the country, with plenty 
of ground, a swimming pool and 
a view of the mountains was their 
demand. And not too far away 
from their studio. 


Soon as it was found, Mrs. Cora 
Lane, mother of the two girls, ar- 
rived from New York. along with 
all the furniture acctimulated at 
their joint home there during the 
four years they starred in radio 
with Fred Waring’s Pennsylva- 
nians. 


Today, Rosemary in overalls is 
occupied painting fences while va- 
cationing after conclusion of “Hol- 
lywood Hotel.” Priscilla is busied 
with interior decoration after her 
starring work in “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” the comedy-drama which 
is now showing at the Strand The- 
atre. 


“We simply have to make a 
home,” says Priscilla. “A career 
alone isn’t enough. Think of going 
back to a hotel room or an apart- 
ment after you finish work. Why, 
it would be deadly. We need a 
place where we can put on old 
clothes and relax while cooking or 
working around at odd jobs.” 


In this, the Lanes follow a fash- 
ion universal among women stars 
today. They buy or lease homes 
at the earliest possible moment, 
and the hotel or apartment living 
of yesterday is a thing of the past.

JOHN LITEL— HE'S 
THAT RARE THING 
A MODEST ACTOR! 


John Litel is an unusual sort of 
person for an actor. He is modest, 
unassuming and retiring. 


For instance, if you scan the 
biographical questionnaire he filled 
out when he assumed a contract 
at Warner Bros. studio you will 
find no reference to war service. 


But John Litel served with the 
French forces in the front lines 
during the World War. Served 
with distinction and was wounded 
and gassed. Litel, however, didn’t 
reveal those facts. A friend did. 


“Yes, I got a slight taste of gas 
in the war,” says John negligently 
in confirming his military service. 
“Wounded? Just a little clip on 
the ear is all.” 


During the filming of “Love, 
Honor and Behave,” in which he 
portrays Priscilla Lane’s father, it 
was as easy to get him to talk 
about himself as it would be to 
make a Sphinx break down and 
tell all. 

Making a highly successful de- 
but on the stage at the age of 26 
seemed of so little moment to 
Litel that he can’t remember how 
or why he happened to become an 
actor. The debut was made, how- 
ever, with Grace George in George 
Bernard Shaw’s “Captain Brass- 
bound’s Conversion” and he was 
definitely committed to a_ stage 
career after a number of years of 
experimenting with other voca- 
tions. 

He played in stock in all of the 
famous resident companies in the 
country and was a great success 
on Broadway in numerous hits. 
His entry into pictures was as 
unusual as his debut on the stage. 
In California to visit his mother, 
he was discovered by a Warner 
Bros. talent scout and offered a 
part in “Fugitive in the Sky.” 

He will be seen in “Love, Honor 
and Behave” which is now show- 
ing at the Strand Theatre. Wayne 
Morris and Priscilla Lane are the 
stars and Stanley Logan was the 
director. 


DOGGIE MAKES DEBUT 


Barbara O’Neil’s 4-year - old 
Scotty, “Snooker,” makes his screen 
debut in Warner Bros. “Love, Honor 
and Behave,” in which his mistress 
is featured. Constantly with Miss 
O’Neil during filming of the ro- 
mantic comedy, he never ruined a 
“take” and is one of few dogs per- 
mitted on a motion picture set at 
any studio. Wayne Morris and 
Priscilla Lane are co-starred in 
“Love, Honor and Behave” which 
is now showing at the Strand. 


LANE GIRLS STAND IN 


Rosemary Lane of the movies 
recently cut short her vacation to 
stand in for her sister Priscilla. 

Because they want to perfect 
their acting technique, the girls 
have an agreement to stand in for 
each other whenever possible. In 
that way they expect to gain a 
varied experience with different 
directors. 

Rosemary shortened her holiday 
while Priscilla was playing the 
feminine lead in “Love, Honor and 
Behave,” the Warner Bros. comedy 
that is now showing at the Strand 
Theatre. 

Just so that no one will be done 
out of a job, the regular stand-ins 
are employed just the same and 
Priscilla teaches them to knit. 


NAMES PET FOR MOVIE 


Wayne Morris has named his 
new police dog, “Kid Galahad,” his 
first starring picture. He’s now 
appearing in “Love, Honor and 
Behave” with Priscilla Lane at the 
Strand Theatre. 


ONEIL GIRL WAITED 
FOR MOVIE STARDOM 


“Success means nothing until to- 
morrow. 

“Glamour is the result of an 
infinite capacity for taking pains— 
yesterday. 

“Be sure you know enough to 
stay on top before you try to get 
there.” 

Introducing Barbara O’Neil, 
glamour girl model 1938, who had 
sufficient brains to wait until she 
was ready for success. She spent 
six years of hard work as a prepa- 
ration for taking Hollywood in her 
stride and is now doing it. The 
above is her philosophy. She is 
now playing a featured role in 
“Love, Honor and Behave” at the 
Strand Theatre. 

This girl played in the Falmouth 
Players in New England with 
Henry Fonda and Margaret Sulla- 
van, and turned down offers to 
come to Hollywood while those two 
went on to the screen and stage 
stardom. Then, she thought, she 
needed more experience. Today, at 
27, she is ready and has already 
proved her capabilities in “Stella 
Dallas.” 

She is a delight to the eye, to 
the casting office and to her direc- 
tor, for she has developed a ro- 
mantic personality that is definitely 
her own. She can and has played 
almost every type of role, and she 
has the experience of the tested 
trouper with which to do it. 

Barbara O’Neil is very definitely 
equipped with brains. She has 
come to Hollywood success the hard 
way, summer stock and winter 
stock companies, small roles on 
Broadway, taking every role of- 
fered if it promised the opportun- 
ity to work under a new or un- 
usually capable director. 


HE KNEW HER WHEN— 


Mona Barrie, currently featured 
in “Love, Honor and Behave,” at 
the Strand, had the unique experi- 
ence of unconsciously masquerad- 
ing as a famous star when she 
was en route to Hollywood to re- 
port for her first screen role. All 
along the route newspapermen and 
fans greeted her, which puzzled her 
no end, for she knew her name 
and the fact she was entering pic- 
tures meant nothing to the Ameri- 
can public. 

Finally she could control her 
curiosity no longer. At Omaha she 
asked a reporter whom he thought 
she was. He replied that he 
knew she was Bebe Daniels! 


IT WAS FOOLPROOF 

An electric dishwashing machine 
got a laugh out of the film folk 
on the “Love, Honor and Behave” 
set recently at Warner Bros. 
studio. According to the script, the 
washer was supposed to function 
perfectly for a while and then 
blow up, showering Priscilla Lane 
and Dick Foran with soapsuds, 
water and crockery. Everything 
went right with the first part of 
the scene but the machinery stub- 
bornly refused to explode. 

After several attempts, Wayne 
Morris wandered onto the set and 
offered to see what he could do. 
After monkeying with the gadgets 
a while, he finally lay flat on the 
floor and stared up at the works. 

There was a painted sign on the 
underside. It said “foolproof.” 
Proving conclusively that even in 
Hollywood, you can believe in signs. 


LUCKY ACCIDENT WINS 
FILM CAREER FOR BOY 


If a secretary hadn’t been late 
for work, one of the screen’s most 
beloved child actors might not have 
been discovered. 

Dickie Moore is the youngster 
who thus throws confusion into 
the ranks of those who insist on 
extreme punctuality. 

Dickie was 11 months old and 
taking a sun bath on the porch of 


- his home when it happened, 


Next door lived the secretary to 
Joseph Schenck and being Mr. 
Schenck’s secretary and late to 
work one of her employer’s assist- 
ants arrived to drive her to the 
studio. 

The rosy cheeked Dickie, quite 
possibly amused by this considera- 
tion accorded a _ tardy person, 
called out greetings and made 
quite a hit with the waiting assist- 
ant. He told of the baby at the 
studio and Mrs. Moore was invited 
to bring Dickie in for an inter- 
view. He was signed to a contract. 

A part with John Barrymore in 
“The Beloved Rogue” followed and 
Dickie was definitely headed for 
cinematic fame. More bits and 
small parts than he could handle 
were offered. He became so popu- 
lar in fact, that roles were written 
in for him. He has been playing 
on the screen ever since, and now 
at the ripe old age of twelve is 
portraying Wayne Morris as a 
child in “Love, Honor and Behave” 
at the Strand Theatre. 


MUSIC FROM GEARS 


Certain nervous persons are sug- 
gesting that Dick Foran, the film 
actor, open a school for the pur- 
pose of teaching feminine motor- 
ists how to shift gears musically. 

The idea was born on the “Love, 
Honor and Behave” set at Warner 
Bros. when Dick, during a between 
scenes wait, demonstrated the num- 
erous sounds he could produce by 
clashing the gears of a car. He 
played “Yankee Doodle,” he imi- 
tated birds and beasts and he even 
had the gears saying ‘‘mama.” 


(Sports Story) 


MOVIE TENNIS GAME 
STARTS ARGUMENT 
IN SPORTS CIRCLES 


Page Big Bill Tilden, Ellsworth 
Vines, Fred Perry! The argument 
that started ’way back in the days 
when they thought tennis was a 
sissy game is about to start over 
again. And it’s all because of the 
way they filmed a tennis game in 
a movie. A tennis game which 
brings out a point of sportsmanship 
around which the whole flicker plot 
revolves. 

Wouldn’t Big Bill have leaped on 
his soap-box to argue about the 
following situation—in fact, won’t 
he, when he sees the picture? 

It’s two-all in sets, 5-4 in the 
final set. But the boy who is trail- 
ing seems to have had the match 
in hand and his opponent is tired. 
Moreover, our hero is serving, and 
hitherto his service—in this set— 
has held beautifully. He wallops 
over the first service, and his tiring 
opponent can’t even touch the ball. 

On the next shot, the opponent 
hits out desperately. It’s one of 
those lucky returns that kiss the 
sideline; our player doesn’t even 
try for it. His next service makes 
the other player out a shot and it 
stands thirty-all. Then comes one 
of those heart-breakers all players 
know. Our hero tries for an ace, 
and his opponent’s feeble return 
balances on the net cord—then 
trickles over! 

Now it’s point set, match, tourna- 
ment—but the boy is steady and 
confident. The first service stings 
into the court and the opponent 
forehands it desperately. It’s down 
the alley line so our hero lunges 
to make the return. 

“Out!” calls the linesman. And 
so is our hero’s return—the shot, 
out or in, was too much for him. 

“The score is deuce!” says the 
referee. 

Right there is where the film 
brings up that old tennis argument. 
For in the Warner Bros. comedy- 
drama “Love, Honor and Behave,” 
which comes to the Strand Theatre 
next Friday, Hero Wayne Morris 
cries that the ball was good. He 
insists it’s game, set, match! Ref- 
eree and opponent won’t accept that 
but agree to call a let and play the 
point over. Our hero dinks in a 
service, and the opponent dinks it 
back, unwilling to out such a shot 
or yet to kill it for the match. 

Then hero Morris — yeah, the 
“Kid Galahad” boy—obviously and 
deliberately throws the point! 

Had Big Bill Tilden, a keen com- 
petitor always, been there as a 
spectator, he’d probably have 
brained that super-gallant hero 
with the edge of a racket. Yet ac- 
cording to Fred Perry, in all- 
English matches, fine points like 
that are practically the rule of 
sportsmanship. 

Fred has won laurels for his 
sportsmanship as well as his play, 
but he and his countrymen, it 
seems, deliberately restrain their 
finer instincts in international and 
foreign play to conform with the 
more practical customs of the 
French and some other nations — 
possibly Americans, whose heritage 
is bitter argument with baseball 
umpires about adverse baseball de- 
cisions. 

Probably the tennis match in 
“Love, Honor and Behave” is given 
more importance than any ever 
filmed, for that lost match loses 
hero Wayne Morris his girl Pris- 
cilla Lane—for the time being—and 
throws monkey wrenches into the 
life-machinery of two very amus- 
ing families. 


HAS SIZEABLE MITTS 


Wayne Morris, star of “Love, 
Honor and Behave” has the larg- 
est hands of all the men who work 
at Warner Bros. studio. Morris 
spread the width of his palm 
against a burly boss carpenter and 
outdid him completely.

“NAME THE PICTURE” CONTEST 
This is the type of contest that's a favorite with news- 
papers because it's easy to work. The cut captions 
provide clues to the answers. Here's how it works: Each 
day a scene from an earlier movie appears in the paper. 
Readers are asked to name the motion picture in which 
the scene belongs. Those sending in correct answers 
receive complimentary tickets to Love, Honor and Be- 
have." Pictures can be printed in any order—with scene 
from "Love, Honor and Behave" appearing on the last 
day. Correct answers are listed below. Try it your- 
self — it's fun. But no peeking at the answers! 


CORRECT ANSWERS

First Day. Loteeeereeeeeeee “Public Enemy” 
Second Day.. “Goodbye Again” 
“Swing Your Lady” 
‘It’s Love ’'m After” 


**Love, Honor and Behave” 


1. Jimmy Cagney shows his public how to tame an enemy in one 
slap of the hand. It’s the “grapefruit method.” If you’d like to 
win femmes and influence women, we don’t recommend that you 
try it. Can you name the picture in which this scene takes place? 


oe 


2. If you want your lady to Love, Honor and Behave, Warren 
William suggests this “scalp treatment” and a threatening “love’’ 
slap. If you want to say “goodbye” to your lady, just try it again 
and again. What is the name of the picture in which scene appears? 


3. Here we have the “hillbilly method.” The hansom’ rasslin’ rascal 
from Noo York is teaching the blacksmith belle of the Ozarks a 
new hold on love. Swing it, Nat! Name the picture in which the 
scene appears and win two tickets to the Strand Theatre. 


4. It looks like the “marked woman” is really on the spot this time. 
Leslie’s telling her that if it’s love she wants, he’s the only guy in 
town who can give it to her. Watch for the last picture in this con- 
test; it appears in this paper tomorrow. 


5. Wayne Morris evidently believes in the “reverse method.” Need 
we tell you that he has the situation well in hand? It’s one of the 
hilarious scenes from his new picture—at the Strand Friday. Name 
the picture and send it to the Contest Editor immediately.

When cave=-man Wayne Morris 
tries to tame the vivacious

breaking, roll-in-the-aisle 
fun fest for all. And when 
Priscilla looks into Wayne's

ease of love at first fight. 


Wayne Morris plays the

Especially Yale students and 
alumni! All will be interested to 
learn that Wayne Morris is a 
Yale man in the picture. This 
should get plenty of space on 
school bulletin board; display 
stills of Wayne Morris wearing 
his major "Y"' (Order EN 5, EN 
6). Also show stills of Priscilla 
Lane (PL 37, PL 55) and bill her 
as the "Vivacious Vamp" who 
sings ''Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen." 
This picture has everything it 
takes to bring out the collegi- 
ates and their belles femmes— 
so hop to it and tell them about 
it in every way you know.

Kiddy Party at the Strand The- 
atre, where she will promise to 
‘Love, Honor and_ Behave.’ ”’

kids” at the party.
